I admit this isn't the kind of thing I've been thinking about, but it does
sound interesting! I also liked your idea about the PPL based module, but I
too have heard that there are certain problems when the input frequency
changes, so I'll be interested to see how this develops (and yes, I might
even run audio through it if Paul isn't looking). And as I said, I REALLY
liked your idea of the programmable pulse pattern sequencer (?).
On a related note, I just got the Chamberlin book "Musical Applications of
Microprocessors" which I've been wanting for about 15 years (don't want to
rush into these things though). It's a great book, though I've only just
started it! I may in the near future be asking questions about a complex
audio waveform generator (I don't want to use the other "d" word) which could
then be processed by the other MOTM modules -- you have been warned.
Hey, I noticed Larry has avoided the Subotnick question.
Ken, what's BG music (bluegrass? Belgian Grunge?)?
And it sounds like you've got a great team there Paul!
